Bangalore Urban

At Vista, I have led three cross-functional engineering teams building digital marketing platforms for small business customers. I owned platform strategy and execution, including the development of a centralized Placement Engine that enabled experimentation-led delivery and scalable campaign execution. Following this, I transitioned into a purely technical leadership role, leading the Digital Partnerships initiative at Vista. In this role, I focused on building platform integrations and technical capabilities to enable more holistic, digitally focused marketing assistance for customers through partner-driven solutions. More recently, I led the design and development of an AI-powered Customer Digital Advisor — a RAG-based system built on a fine-tuned Ollama model that autonomously analyses gaps in a customer's digital presence and generates and executes a tailored improvement plan. I also built a PoC for domain-specific LLM fine-tuning, exploring embedding pipelines, vector stores, and model evaluation to assess production feasibility.
